WBI followers know how workplace bullying has become the dominant style of management for many American employers. Now here’s your chance to voice disapproval of the status quo. You can purchase these buttons at the WBI BullyBusters Store.

It reminds us all that bullies erode profits and prevent balanced budgets because of their meddling. Their misconduct leads to avoidable:
– turnover of the wrong people (the skilled and threatening (to the bullies) ones),
– absenteeism for mental health days,
– presenteeism by the resentful,
– increased healthcare utilization,
– skyrocketing workers comp and disability insurance claims, and
– litigation expenses (defense and settlement costs).

A special thanks goes out to WBI reader, Terri K., for inspiringour newest button design. Since bullies tend to target the mostskilled workers, they really do drive away an organizations’ besttalent. This makes for a unique holiday-themed graphic, just intime for Halloween! The button comes as either a pin or magnet.Available at the BullyBusters online store.
